It will make the barrier to entry for them higher, yes, by requiring them
to take one of the three previously described steps to get systems
installed,
which I'll repeat here:
1) get users to turn off secure boot
2) get users to enroll a distro-specific key
3) pay the $99 bucks and sign the first stage bootloader.
Two are expensive in terms of will, the third incurs monetary cost. Pick
your poison.
1, obviously.
